He is voting for Romney, even though he claims that Johnson would make a better President. He's not interested in actually supporting his allegedly-beloved Tea Party by altering the stranglehold that the Repocrats have on our elections, because he's too enamored of the social agenda of the GOP.

...I prefer a man who will burn the flag and then wrap himself in the Constitution to a man who will burn the Constitution and then wrap himself in the flag.

The person who bests represents my views AND has a realistic chance to win.

That would be Mitt Romney. We already know Obama will not work with the Tea Party, he proved he would rather let America be downgraded 3 times in the last 14 months and play blame games than even so something as simple and necesary as pass a budget.

Just curious, when you posted this, what was your purpose in doing so? Did you actually think it would change anyone's mind or affect anyone's thinking in any way besides adding to the annoyance of those who disagree with your brand of politics? Or were you just wanting to stir the pot and get people riled up?

I am either voting Phattscotty or BBS as write-ins. I am torn between the two, because I identify with BBS platform and message ("Stop cryin' and get logical."), but I mean...I do want to save America too. Hm,

He does has your views. He, like you, flip flops like a fish in a boat. Yall both can't hold a stance for more than a week, so I'd say. DUH! Of course your gonna vote for Mitt.

It was because three people asked me the same question in about fifteen minutes... This should answer everyone.

Why are you asking?

What question was that? Sorry, I don't stalk you like Woodruff does so I don't know what question people are asking you. I'm asking because I'm genuinely curious what you hoped to gain by posting that. Would it at all influence your voting decision if you read a post by someone that said:

Vote against Romney and save America.

If so, how would it affect it?

I don't follow, but honestly, everyone, I have not slept in 10 days....4 hours a night tops, many nights 2 hours. Feel free to rephrase. I am going to take a bath now, something I have not done in probably 7 years. I am even going to add some bubbles and Alibabba aroma therapy.

The answer you seek may be as simple as me publicly coming out of the closet that I am voting for Mitt Romney.

yes you have asked, yes I have made threads (plural) about it. I named at least 5, others have discovered many more.

#1 Romney is not a Marixt

If I may, please let me ask first. Why is it not as simple (for me) as..."which is better concerning the Tea Party? Romney? or Obama?"

Who can work with Congress to pass a budget? Regardless of who controls Congress? What is Obama's track record here? both when he had Democrat Majorities, and when he lost the house, but still has the Senate?

I believe Romney will work with Congress to pass a budget. My hopes are the Tea Party will win Congress, and finish kicking out all the BS Republicans.

Vote for Gary Johnson then. Get your tea-party buddies to vote for him. Get 99%ers and OWS-activists to vote for him.

You probably consider me a liberal, I consider myself a liberal and think you've got the definition of "liberal" ass-backwards. I consider myself further to the left than Obama is by any measure. And yet I find myself agreeing with the libertarian Gary Johnson's positions far more than with most of Obama's.Give the outside of the box a try and bring some buddies with you. Two compartments isn't enough anyway.
